Frequently the package's build scripts will override anything you set
for things like CC and CFLAGS. If the overriding takes place in
debian/rules (most of the time it does), you can simply edit
debian/rules before running dpkg-buildpackage. If it takes place in
the actual Makefiles, though, either you've got to do a lot of tedious
editing, or you can do something gross but functional like making
/usr/bin/gcc a wrapper around the real compiler.
